Gosh, it's been almost a year since my last entry. I guess tough medicine is hard to take. I'm still not over the real sense of loss from our most recent presidential election. I know you can't win them all, but I had expended a lot of time, thought and hope on this one. The loss stunned me.
I think it's time to pick myself up and go on with life. There are still things to be passionate about... and some of them are actually within my power to control. I'm not sure yet what direction things will go for the Basicguy in me, but I'm sure something will come. Could it be a photoblog? It could. How about a writer's blog? It could be that too. Gardening? Sure, why not. It's got to be hiking! Possibly. I do enjoy all of those things so why not?
For years my two loves have been politics and religion. They don't always mix so well, but both have fascinated me. My educational background in history has probably had as much to do with these interests as anything. So, will I never write about politics again? Well, I could never promise that. And what about religion... if it's such a love, why not try your hand with that? Thanks for asking. That's probably the most intriguing question of them all.
Time will tell.
